If there is only one staff in one of the staff types @code{ChoirStaff}
or @code{StaffGroup}, the bracket and the starting bar line will not be
displayed as standard behavior.  This can be changed by overriding the
relevant properties.

Note that in contexts such as @code{PianoStaff} and @code{GrandStaff}
where the systems begin with a brace instead of a bracket, another
property has to be set, as shown on the second system in the example.
